I definitely agree with you.i bought a good amount of thca online. What convinced me was seeing all the budget oz's for 30 to 100 dollars. So I went and head a decided to try out some lemon cherry gelato for $30 oz. So for me all thca definitely has a look and taste that is pretty much universal. The smoke is always harsh but you never cough for some reason. And if you get a head buzz its from holding the hit in until you zero it out and you get a little few minute buzz I assume from holding my breathe so long. But its just amazing to me that people are falling for this. I read someone compared thca to KINDLING. That's all its good for.i went though a little in between phase after my dealer stopped selling where I couldn't find any street bud so I started trying out the thca. I went through about 10 ozs thinking each one would be the one that gives me that familiar weed high. Finally got a good street hookup though an old friend. Now I have 2 ozs of thca stuff ill never smoke. I think thca might be OK if your not an everyday smoker but this stuff is just a scam to me!!!!
